Can I just remove this?? 10 Months, 3 Weeks ago
|
|
Guys,
I have a question. I have an imported roadstar 2004 and there is a little extra to it. On the picture you can see a black cylinder near the shift peg (no, not the horn  )
Someone told me that it is part of the AIS system, which comes on bikes from several parts in the USA, as for enviromental regulation. I know AIS and how to remove it, done it several times but what is that black cylinderthing??
And can I just remove it?
Appreciate your advise.

I don't know what it is but I don't have one. Can you tell where the hoses go?

There is a air intake filter for the AIS, if you already have the pump off the filter is not needed. Take a picture of it and the many experts here will confirm as to whether or not it is still needed. Or look the part up on the parts list and see what it is called.

Thanks Ahamay, I have a european manual and this part is not in it. On this bike the complete AIS system is still on. But I want to remove it together with that cylinder.

I too have a 2004 and I did have it on mine. It is a part of the "California Emissions" package. I've found info on removing it, but I don't remember exactly where. I think there may be some link on the forum for it.
To answer your question, yes it can be removed and I did it when I took off my AIS system. That canister will have a hose going to your "roll-over valve" and it is supposed to store any gasoline vapors that come from your tank until the engine is started the next time.
Hope this helps.
